Hope to see you there 😊

✨We’d like to invite you to one of our BIG Celebration 🎉 event of Plaistow South Big Local.

Even with the knowledge that PSBL had an end date it feels such an emotional time for all connected. We have just over a month to go before PSBL closes its doors so we are going to make that time count – to celebrate, to bring joy and thanks, to reflect and remember for PSBL existed because of our community, the residents and the organisations we partnered with along the way.

So get your diaries out and save the date!

✨Great mindful moments session today learning about hidden disabilities and deaf awareness.

We were taught some basic signs and learnt about apps that support the deaf community by local resident Pamela. We also crafted how we see ourselves.

Apps -

SignLive: FREE interpretation service for those who are deaf or hard of hearing. It connects people to a qualified online British Sign Language interpreter.

SignVideo: FREE interpretation service. Deaf BSL users can use it to call council services.

Time: 10.30 - 12.30pm
Location: Welcome Centre, Memorial Community Church, E13 8AL
